<em>Explanation: </em>

<em />

<em>Complete question... </em>

<em>a) the same codons are assigned to the same amino acids in most living things. </em>

<em>b) the same codons are assigned to the same DNA sequences in most living things. </em>

<em>c) None of these are correct. </em>

<em>d) the same amino acids are assigned to the same DNA sequences in most living things. </em>

<em />

<em>The genetic code is ubiquitous- it is found </em><em>everywhere</em><em> in most living organisms. Thus </em><em>a) the same codons are assigned to the same amino acids in most living things. </em>

<em />

<em>S</em>equences of DNA make up genes which can have different forms called alleles. DNA is transcribed into mRNA and later translated into amino acids which are linked together by rRNA to form proteins.

Further Explanation:

The nucleic acids are comprised of smaller units called nucleotides and function as storage for the body’s genetic information. These monomers include ribonucleic acid (RNA) or deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). They differ from other macromolecules since they don’t provide the body with energy. They exist solely to encode and protein synthesis.

Basic makeup: C, H, O, P... life on Earth is Carbon based nucleotides contain 5-carbon sugars, and  nitrogen; the bases may contain single to double bond rings

All the genetic information within the eukaryotic cell is stored within the nucleus as helical DNA. This DNA is tightly wound around histones as chromosomes. Codons are three nucleotide bases, with each codon encoding an amino acid or signalling the beginning or end of protein synthesis.

RNA codons determine certain amino acids so the order in which the bases occur within in the codon sequence designates which amino acid is to be made bus with the four RNA nucleotides (Adenine, Cysteine and Uracil) Up to 64 codons (with 3 as stop codons) determine amino acid synthesis. The stop codons ( UAG UGA UAA) terminate amino acid/ protein synthesis while the start codon AUG begins protein synthesis.

What does the light reaction need to occur and what does it produce
SpyIntel [72]
"Light reactions need light to produce organic energy molecules. They are initiated by colored pigments, mainly green colored chlorophylls. Dark reactions make use of these organic energy molecules. This reaction cycle is also called Calvin Benison Cycle, and it occurs in the stroma."

Why does Dr. Giedd compare reading to the new flood of information that a child's brain must process today?
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

He made this comparison because just as reading is a learned activity by the brain, so are the new flood of information that a child's brain must adapt to.

Explanation:

In describing the intricacies of the human brain, Dr. Jay Giedd talked about the brain's special ability to adapt to new behaviors as well as to multitask. Many of our ancestors lived and died without ever reading a book but humans alive today have adapted well to reading. So has the brain also adapted well to all the flood of information in our day.

The brain learns through examples and it does a good job at this. This is the more reason parents should endeavor to display good examples in the presence of their children.
